MFTS - 'Getting Sticky'
Rear Crew contract runs out and Phenom
Wonder if they will continue with the King Air after the Rear Crew contract runs out in mid 2016?
Rear Crew Stage 1 | Ascent Flight Training
W.R.T the multi-engine phase utilizing the Phenom 100, (I've sat in and played with its bigger brother cockpit the 300 at BGAD 2014 my pic below )
Though there is no HUD built into the architecture but if a customer so desires it, a HUD can be installed. The company test pilot told me that due to the layout of the instruments near at eye level, there is no point really for a HUD.
Though how over the decades before the introduction of the T-1A, did the graduates of Sheppard and then Williams who passed out then streamed to MAC/AMC to fly the C-130/C-141/C-5/C-17/C-135 variants without the use of a multi-engine trainer whilst only flying T-37 and T-38?
Cheers
